EQUATIONS FOR BODY WEIGHT ADJUSTMENTS IN BLACK BELLY EWE LAMBS
Background. As body weight (BW) is rarely determined on fasted animals in most production systems, the need to develop accurate mathematical models for adjusting BW has been identified. Objective. To evaluate models for estimating shrunk body weight (SBW)

EVALUATION OF MODELS TO ESTIMATE EMPTY BODY WEIGHT IN HAIR SHEEP RAISED IN A FEEDLOT SYSTEM
Background. The empty body weight (EBW) represents exactly the animal mass and is used as a base to calculate most of the nutrient requirements in most feeding systems. Objective.

Development and evaluations of equations to predict empty body weight in pre-weaned hair sheep lambs [PDF]
This research aimed to assess the relationships among shrunk body weight (SBW) and empty body weight (EBW) to develop equations to estimate EBW in 121 pre-weaned hair sheep lambs from different genotypes (Pelibuey, n=39; Katahdin, n=27 and crossbred ...
